2 Traditional Life of Materials & Process Information Collect Analyze Release Equipment Calibration Test Plans and Procedures Initiate Work Testing Test Results Design Allowables Distribution Released after Approval Released after Approval Material Pedigree Memos/Reports Includes both material property and process data

3 Materials & Process Information Management

4 Materials & Process Information in the Acquisition Life Cycle Traditional Materials & Process Information Input Materials & Process Information Needed

5 Impact of materials and process information on product lifecycle Project Funding Trends by Commitment and Expenditure of Lifecycle Cost (LCC)) 85% of life cycle costs and environmental impact is built-into products during design

6 Materials & Process Information Chemical & Materials Dilemma Role in R & D The Valley of Death Technology Development Cycle times 7-30 Years Developed independent of application Empirical developments Modeling Multi-scale issues Engineering Design Cycle times 3-5 Years Requires confidence in materials system Risk Averse Modeling enables rapid developments in design Use of New Materials & Processes only Occurs With Mitigation of Risk

7 Materials & Process Information Role in Design

8 Materials & Process Information Role in Acquisition Decision-making MRL Exit Criteria 1-3 Characterize Basic Materials for Mfg. 4 Baseline Materials & Issues 6 Materials Matured Similar Lines 7 Materials Being Proven 8 Materials Proven 9 Materials In Control

9 Materials & Process Information Role in Sustainment/O&M

10 Materials & Process Information Role in O & M Supports alternative selection for restricted materials & process Tied to TDPs could answer, Where is it used?

11 Modeling & Simulation Solution Distributed Information System R&D T&E System Development Analysis Tools Materials Characterization Test Methods Laboratory Performance Data MAPTIS/MSAT Restricted Materials 3 rd Party Databases Commercial Data Sources Future Capability Projection Logistics Compliance Sustainability

12 Material and Processing Technology Information System (MAPTIS) MAPTIS - single point source for NASA, for the purpose of acquiring, archiving and disseminating materials information throughout a product life cycle

13 MAPTIS - History While materials selection has always been an integral part of hardware design, the importance of selection of proper materials in space craft design took on greater importance after the Apollo I accident: Finding: An extensive distribution of combustible materials in the cabin. Report of Apollo 204 Review Board, Page 5-12 Recommendation: The amount and location of combustible materials in the Command Module must be severely restricted and controlled. - Report of Apollo 204 Review Board, Page 6-1

14 History After the Apollo I accident NASA started to look at material compatibilities by developing handbooks Several NASA handbooks were brought together into MAPTIS around 1986 First query-able version with user terminal access was on a VAX 8650 Today, MAPTIS-II is a web accessible system MAPTIS is a central repository for material data for reliability and reusability

15 Current User Demographics Current number of register users: Average users per month: 500+ NASA Centers (61%) Marshall, Ames, Glenn, JPL, Johnson, Kennedy, Langley, White Sands Test Facility Contractors/Universities (26%) Example Contractors: Boeing, Lockheed Martin, Orbital, Ball Aerospace, Hamilton, Honeywell, Goodrich, Raytheon, SAIC Example Universities: Texas A&M, University of Colorado, University of Alabama, UCLA, MIT Foreign Users (13%) ESA, JAXA (Japan), Canadian Space Agency, Italian Space Agency, Russian Space Agency

16 30+ Databases Web Accessible 24 x 7 hour access Features Live support 7am to 5pm CST Search capability to query open material sources Flexible System configuration to adapt to our customer needs The MAPTIS team provides all IT support along with materials expertise
